The Night Killers (film)

The Night Killers was a proposed third telefilm, and a sequel to The Night Stalker and The Night Strangler.

Proposed plot
In this story, Carl Kolchak would have found himself working once again in a new state, this time in Hawaii. Tony Vincenzo would also have reappeared as Kolchak's boss, despite the heated argument they were having at the conclusion of the previous movie.

Rather than a supernatural threat like an immortal or a vampire, this movie would have featured a science fiction threat. In it, a UFO would be depositing alien robots in key government positions, attempting to colonize Earth.

Cancellation
It was decided that the film would be cancelled in favor of the TV series. Some elements of it (androids, UFOs) were later explored in that series.
